SkyMapper
All The Sky, All The Time
About
Our mission is to transform the collection, standardization, sharing, and monetization of space data. Inspired by successful decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) such as HiveMapper, SkyMapper focuses on astronomical data. Utilizing the latest generation of smart telescopes, which number in the tens of thousands, SkyMapper fosters a new era of collective space data acquisition. It operates as a two-sided marketplace, linking data providers—including individual telescope users and smart telescope networks—with a diverse array of data consumers. These buyers range from scientific institutions and universities to AI researchers, commercial satellite operators, the emerging space industry, governmental bodies, and other entities.
